Abstract: Laminated articles that include a first textile and a functional film layer bonded together by an adhesive layer having a non-uniform adhesive pattern is provided. The non-uniform adhesive pattern creates regions free or substantially free of adhesive that permits the laminate to preferentially bend in those regions. The adhesive regions, together with the non-adhesive regions, create a visible pattern on the surface of the laminate. A second textile may optionally be bonded to the functional film layer opposing the first textile by an adhesive. The first textile or the film layer may be elastic, shrinkable, or expandable. In such embodiments, raised portions of the laminate corresponding to the non-adhesive regions and curled portions corresponding to the adhesive regions are visible. The laminated article is waterproof, liquid-proof, breathable, and aesthetically pleasing and demonstrates a reduction in stiffness, improved insulation properties, improved stretch properties and a reduction of noise associated with bending the article.

Abstract: A data de-duplication approach leverages acceleration hardware in SSDs for performing digest computations used in de-duplication operations and support on behalf of an attached host, thereby relieving the host from the computing burden of the digest computation in de-duplication (de-dupe) processing. De-dupe processing typically involve computation and comparison of message digests (MD) and/or hash functions. Such MD functions are often also employed for cryptographic operations such as encryption and authentication. Often, SSDs include onboard hardware accelerators for MD functions associated with security features of the SSDs. However, the hardware accelerators may also be invoked for computing a message digest result and returning the result to the host, effectively offloading the burden of MD computation from the host, similar to an external hardware accelerator, but without redirecting the data since the digest computation is performed on a data stream passing through the SSD for storage.
